I don't qualify for membership, but the mystery owner of this Oxy Blue I spotted at the dealership sure would. I'm posting because this is a rare pic of an all Oxy Blue, a classy color:

I'm in, too...although I'm waiting for mine to be built. I think my dealership has only sold one OB and has another on the way. My MINI will be OB/W w/ oak trim inside.

Now to work on that siggy!!!!

Oxy Blue Vy Cool

Thanks for the Oxy Blue photo EENY. My OB/B is due to arrive the next few weeks. Last Saturday I saw the first OB my dealer has taken delivery of. It looks great and unusual. It will not break my heart if it doesn't become a popular color. OB is different from what you see on modern cars. It looks maybe old fashioned- from the fifties or sixties - and that's good in my book.

I went with Oxygen Blue because it reminds me of this:


This was called Island Blue...seems similar to me, although I confess I've yet to see an OB MINI in person yet.

That island blue looks awfully close to oxygen blue.

I really like the all oxygen blue MC's....thanks for the picture, EENY. Can't go wrong with O2 blue no matter what roof color you go with.

I love mine (O2/White).

Edited to add: Gokartride, my dealer just sold an O2/W with oak interior. He said it looked great.

Whoa...that's very exciting!!! Got to keep taking deep breaths here.

I think, depending on it's popularity, that Oxygen Blue will probably go the way the way of Solid Gold, Velvet Red, and maybe even Silk Green. Seems to happen that way w/ Cooper-only colors...but I could be wrong. It would be nice if OxyBlue would stay around awhile rather than see Coopers return to a more bland, predictable palette.

Glad we're gettin' while the gettin's good!!!!!
